Edmund and Helga- Part 6

Edmund and Helga- Part 6

Fifth screen

“Looking for Helga”

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

[Edmond is walking in a quiet street, toward Helga’s father house]

Jinn:

Such a quiet city!!

Edmond:

You are right, it’s all repetitious, and it’s boring.

Jinn:

Edmond do you want us to start a contention!

Soul:

Do you mind?!

Jinn:

What for and for what?

Soul:

To have peace.

Jinn:

To have peace? Peace is an excuse for you and souls like you so you could put your forehead on the ground all day and do nothing, such weird creatures you are! Don’t you have anything to do?

 

 

Soul:

Putting forehead on the ground is a symbolic act, and it has many visible and invisible concepts. Forehead on ground is to deference to king, to obey the king and his commands, because only with learning and being obedience we shall be competent commanders. Doing as king’s command is serving all the creatures, to love all the creatures, and to reach peace and bliss in life we must obey the king’s commands.

Jinn:

Visible and invisible concepts!! My foot! Can’t you say words in an apprehensible way? Invisible concepts are deception, don’t be so mysterious, just say it right out!

Edmond:

He is right, just say it right out!

Soul:

Nope, it won’t work like that! It seems that we have two problems, and it can’t be solved if I just say it right out.

Jinn:

Speak out the first problem and I will solve it in a jiffy! But say it with no deception.

Edmond:

He is right, say it.

Soul:

Very well, mister Jinn please write down the scent of a rose.

 

 

Jinn:

I’m illiterate, and I don’t have my eyeglasses, I left it with the king, meanwhile if I even was literacy, the scent of rose cannot be written!

Soul:

Describe it then.

Jinn:

Dream on! No one can describe the scent of a rose even after a thousand years!! The scent must be sensed, it can only be sensed. Without olfactory nerve; realizing the scent of a rose is impossible.

Soul:

So you couldn’t fix the first problem!!

Jinn:

What’s the second one?

Soul:

Very well, now the second one, please answer this question.

Jinn:

Go on.

Soul:

A minor (3 or 4 years old) asks his father; how did I come to exist, how do you answer this?

 

 

Jinn:

So easy, the answer is from your mother abdomen.

Soul:

Very well, the kid continues asking, where was I before my mother abdomen? How did I get into there and how did I come out?

Jinn:

I can explain it for him.

Soul:

How? Can you explain ovulation, sperms, zygotic, embryo, and gestation for a kid? Does he understand even if you explain?

Jinn:

What an intolerable kid!! Nothing; I would say the king gave you to us, in a Friday night; one angel brought you down to us.

Soul:

What makes you say that?

Jinn:

Because he is a minor, he won’t understand no matter how I say it, give me a break!!

Soul:

See, you didn’t want to be mysterious but in order to talk the fact you had to choose words that are different from the fact, thus you had no choice but to use parable in order to make him understand.

 

 

Jinn:

Ok, don’t let the cat out of the bag!!

Soul:

Because you are all talks and no act, you think you know a lot, now I want to say the exact words that you used to show you how you were talking surly but now you are looking for an escape.

These are your words:

Visible and invisible concepts!! My foot! Can’t you say words in an apprehensible way? Invisible concepts are deception, don’t be so mysterious, just say it right out!

Jinn:

Ok, point taken.

Edmond:

Why are you pushing it? The kid will grow up and he will understand in time.

Soul:

Right on Edmond, I’m trying to say the same thing, when our perceptions of world are not completed, we are like that kid, but if we grow up rationally, we will realize the subject as well.

Jinn:

You souls know these things well, because you have nothing to do.

 

 

Soul:

It’s not like this, we have so much to do, and our job is to transfer knowledge to human beings, this transfer is from heavens to earth and from earth to heavens so the life will go on.

Jinn:

Ok, I’m tired of this philosophical debate, let’s do our jobs.

Soul:

Agreed!

[They continue walking; suddenly one of the female residents of heavens comes toward Edmond]

 Jinn:

Hey, Edmond, show her the green light!

Edmond:

What does it mean?

Jinn:

You are so behind!! Nothing just shut and open one of your eyes.

Edmond:

How? It’s hard to do!

[Edmond is trying but he is doing it with both of his eyes]

Jinn:

Not like this, do it with one of your eyes.

[Edmond is still trying, the female passes by]

Edmond:

Finally, I got this.

Jinn:

Very well, this one went by, but wait, I will tell you to do it when the time comes.

Edmond:

[Another resident is coming to them, when he gets close enough Edmond twinkle, the passenger looks surprised]

Jinn:

Hey, not this one!!

Edmond:

Why?

Jinn:

Because he was a male!!!

Edmond:

What’s the difference?

Soul:

[Is laughing]

Jinn:

It’s correct that I misdirect you, but not this much! You should not overtake me! I have reputation to uphold, my dear it makes so much difference, you will understand it later!!

[The third passenger is getting close, she is walking with coquetry]

Jinn:

That’s it, do it now.

Soul:

Don’t fall for him.

Edmond:

You always ask me not to, but jinni is teaching me a lot.

 Soul:

Ok, the best part is yet to come!!

Jinn:

Did you do it?

Edmond:

Yes, I did!!

Third passenger:

[The third passenger likes Edmond’s eye move (twinkling) she is practicing it without knowing what twinkle means, she passes Edmond]

Aha, I got it!!

Narrator:

It didn’t take long, Edmond has not reached Helga’s father house, and all of the city were practicing twinkling, without knowing the meaning of it, and people twinkle as they pass each other, anyway it was something new!!

[Two passengers are coming (man and female) and they are talking, they get close to Edmond the male passenger goes away and the female one is getting close to Edmond by herself, and as the twinkling was all over the city, she twinkle to Edmond!]

Jinn:

Come on; show the green light as well!!

Edmond:

[He twinkle and passenger smiles]

Jinn:

Go on, go to her and speak.

Soul:

No, she is with someone else, he might be her husband, or her fiancé, don’t you see, she got a ring in her finger, do you want to violate the command?!!

Jinn:

Firstly, the ring means nothing, it is for being fashionable, secondly you can violate the command, go on I got your back, go to her.

Soul:

If you violate the command, you will pay for it, you will get into trouble.

Jinn:

Don’t mind him, go on, she is going away, forget the command; you see nothing you hear nothing!!

Edmond:

What do I say?

Jinn:

Just say hi.

Edmond:

Then what?

Jinn:

Say today is a nice day, or wow you are so beautiful, use positive and attractive words, she will respond.

Edmond:

Hi miss.

Female passenger:

Hi mister.

Edmond:

What a nice day!

Female passenger:

The air if full of ray pollution, what’s up?

Edmond:

I wanted to say, you are so beautiful.

Female passenger:

That’s very kind of you, thank you, what do you want?

 

 

Edmond:

Yes, I wanted to tell you something that you have never heard before, command and command violation, cry, contention, debate, and a lot more.

Female passenger:

Wow, looks interesting, I want to know!!

Jinn:

Tell her if you want to know let’s have a coffee and I will explain.

Edmond:

Shall we have a coffee together? I will explain it in the café.

Female passenger:

Ah, I’m sorry, I’m waiting for my fiancé, he should be returning now. Meanwhile, according to the command I cannot drink coffee with someone I don’t know because I have a fiancé.

Jinn:

Tell her, we will get to know each other, and don’t take the command seriously because we can violate the command.

Edmond:

We will get to know each other, actually we know each other now, I am Edmond and don’t take the command seriously because we can violate the command nowadays!

Soul:

Let her go, you will regret this.

Edmond:

Silent, it doesn’t concern you; by the way what does regret means?

Jinn:

Edmond don’t mind soul, and do it.

Female passenger:

My fiancé would leave me if he sees that I am drinking coffee with you, by the way my name is Alisha.

Edmond:

It is Nice to meet you.

[They shake hands]

Alisha:

I am glad too.

Jinn:

Tell her if your fiancé leaves you, even better, I will be your valet! No, no, don’t say it, we are there!

[On the way on the sidewalk there are some tables with chairs around them, it is a cafe]

Edmond:

Let’s have a coffee.

Alisha:

Ok, meanwhile we will wait for my fiancé, only on one condition that you talk about command violation.

[They sit behind a table across each other]

Jinn:

Edmond, pay attention, the sooner you go the better is it! Say if you want to realize the meaning of command violation we must go to my home.

Edmond:

I will explain command violation briefly, but your beauty has charmed me, words fall me! I’m like a dying hunt in your powerful forks, I hope that I could explain command violation in this status of mine, but even if I say a thousands of words you won’t realize its meaning, but if you would come to my place, you will realize command violation in a moment!

Jinn:

Strike a light! What a beautiful words! Where did you learn these? You are talented indeed, supreme power didn’t choose you causeless, let me pick a pen and write these down, it is useful, who are you? You have overtaken me! Did soul teach you these?

Soul:

I did not, I’m surprised myself, but I know that supreme power created him with potential and he can put them on act on different conditions, sometimes the covers goes away and his talent flourishes, but it is not permanent, he will forget it soon.

Alisha:

Thank you, I cannot come to your home, because I’m waiting for my fiancé, and what about your wife? You are wearing the marriage ring.

Edmond:

The connection, that’s what’s up! The ring is not important, fortunately my wife is at her father’s house, my place is yours if you desire!

Alisha:

Are you giving me a marriage proposal?

Jinn:

Tell her not marriage, companionship!

Edmond:

Not marriage, companionship, enjoyment of companionship, drinking orange juice, heart to heart talking, and in the end command violation!

Jinn:

Well done Edmond, you are my mentor!

Alisha:

No, thank you, have you forgotten my fiancé?

Jinn:

Say that monster?

Edmond:

That monster which I saw earlier? He was unwieldy! He looked like retarded!!

Alisha:

He is no monster, he is robust, I love him, he is a good man, where is your wife?

Edmond:

I told you before; she is at her daddy’s house.

Alisha:

Why?

Edmond:

How I should say it, because of a contention.

Alisha:

What is contention?

Edmond:

One of the concepts which I have learned, one of the names, it’s hard to explain, it must happen then you will realize it.

[At this very moment, suddenly a robust male comes at the table]

Alisha:

Hello, Hercules.

Hercules:

Hi Alisha, we better go shopping, if you are finished here

Alisha:

Let me introduce you to mister Edmond.

[Hercules and Edmond shake hands]

It is good that you are here honey, I met Edmond just now, he told me that his wife is gone and he asked me to drink orange juice with him at his home and talk and violate the command so I could fill the empty place of his wife for him, he said you are a monster, and you look like retards.

I think that was all, is that right?

Ah, I almost forgot, he wanted to teach me command violation and contention as well.

[As Alisha was talking Edmond was going under the table little by little!]

Hercules:

Honey, maybe he is from another planet or another heaven, and he is not familiar with rules, it is ok, let us say goodbye and be gone we have much to do and others are waiting for us.

Jinn:

Pull yourself together Edmond, don’t let him take Helga from you, tell him you are from a ridicules planet, don’t be fooled by your size! Over my dead body!!

Edmond:

Look I’m from king’s court; you are from a ridicules planet yourself, don’t be fooled by your size, Alisha won’t move unless I say so, over my dead body!!

Jinn:

Well done, are you ever a genius?

Alisha:

How interesting, what is the meaning of my dead body?

Edmond:

Jinn, what is the meaning of dead body?

Jinn:

I will tell you later.

Hercules:

Ok, as you say, I don’t get it!

Edmond:

You came from a ridicules planet, you are a new money person, that time I was driving my Ferrari, are you scared? Back at you!

Jinn:

Wow, well done, where did you learn these?

Edmond:

When the time is right I can be better jinni than you could ever be!!

Hercules:

[Takes Alisha’s hand]

Let’s go we have much to do.

Jinn:

Don’t let her go, stop him!

Soul:

[He is watching and he says]

 Whatever comes, you deserve it!

Edmond:

[He takes Alisha’s hand and tells Hercules]

  Over my dead body!

Hercules:

What is dead body anyway?

Edmond:

You will learn it soon, how should I know.

Jinn:

Let go of Alisha and take Hercules collar and push him.

Edmond:

[Takes Hercules collar and pushes him]

Alisha:

Interesting, it feels interesting!

Hercules:

Sir, what is this?!

Jinn:

Punch him in the face!!!

Soul:

Wow.

Edmond:

What is the meaning of punch him? What do I do?

Jinn:

Let me explain:

First step: retractable your right hand fingers, this is called fist.

Second step: raise your fist until it is on the 90 degree of your shoulder.

Third step: fast, take back your hand with the fist.

Edmond:

[Is doing jinn’s orders exactly]

Jinn:

Forth step: take your fist forward fast and hit Hercules left eye.

Soul:

[Covers his eyes with both hands so he won’t see]

Edmond:

[He does it, he hits Hercules left eye hardly, and Hercules drops down with his damaged eye, he is rocked doesn’t know what to do!]

Alisha:

You were sublime! I have never seen something like this!

[Faces Hercules]

Honey, you do it too, and add one thing, no, add several other things to it!

Jinn:

[He is rubbing his hands, and is happy]

 

 

Perfect!! Awesome!!

Soul:

Stop it, you are destroying him.

Jinn:

That doesn’t concern me, I’m just doing my job, and I am a dutiful jinni, I just propose, I didn’t force him, I’m just head of his trainings, demolition trainings!! Tell him to listen to you if you feel sorry for him!

Get off my bag!!

Soul:

I cannot use lies and tricks like you, that’s the problem; you are selling fake gold for real one easily! And when buyer finds out, you would say it doesn’t concern me, you had choice, and I didn’t force you!! Thus don’t think you are masterful, my hands are tied!

Hercules:

[Wondering with his swollen eye, staring at Edmond then he does as Edmond did and he hits Edmond’s eye hardly, then he picks Edmond up and throws him on the table, table brakes and he picks him up again and throws him to the window, the glass breaks down, Edmond is groaning on the ground]

Alisha:

[Is laughing]

How weird!

 

 

Hercules:

Let’s go dear, yes it was weird!

Edmond:

Ouch! My eye, my leg, my head, my back, it hurts! Damn jinni it is your fault entirely!

Jinn:

Don’t drag me into this!! You had a choice!

All hail the “free will”!! I’m sorry, but there is nothing I can do for you now!!

Soul:

Wait Edmond, I will use “induction current” on shop keeper, he will call emergency now!!

[Shop keeper calls a hospital, ambulance arrives, technician of emergency checks Edmond up, then they put him on the stretcher and they leave the screen]
